Clothing and food items are permitted to be sent to Level 1, 2, 3, 4A and Death Row inmates. Level 4B, 5, Reception and Intensive Prison Program inmates cannot receive packages. However, there are limitations to the number of packages that may be sent. Inmates (patients) with long-term placements at the Corrections Medical Center (CMC), Frazier Health Center (FHC) or Oakwood Correctional Facility (OCF) may receive packages with the approval of the Warden. Otherwise, CMC and FHC inmates are ineligible to order or receive packages. Similarly, inmates who have been sent to outside hospitals or who are assigned to disciplinary control or local control are ineligible to order or receive packages. Institutions provide inmates with a list of items they may receive; this list may vary from prison to prison. It is the responsibility of the inmate to provide you with the list and the proper mailing guidelines. Ohio prisoners DO NOT have access to computers for e-mail correspondence, therefore, you may correspond with an inmate via the U.S. Mail. Please include his or her inmate number. The inmate number can be obtained by calling Central Inmate Records at 614-752-1076 or you can use our on-line offender search. Prison addresses can be found by locating the institution on our facilities page. | |
